Herin, he was much better day before yesterday, but really, really grumpty; understandable after everything he's been through and how much it's kept him all here on the couch instead of running around. So I took him to daycare yesterday even though I could tell he wasn't quite 100% yet. They sai dthat yes, he was a bit tired and grumpy but in general had a really great day, and when he got home he was SO chipper and happy I was really glad to see it. Today he is still asleep.

herinfernallady

thanks haz

3:52 am

Flask1

thanks Haz!...got it......

3:52 am

Haz1558

That's okay - thank BabbleRabble really.

3:53 am

herinfernallady

thanks babble for finding it and haz for better clueing it (not being rude im a bit fried)

3:53 am

Flask1

Hey Babble.....thankyou!

3:54 am

BabbleRabble

good day all

3:54 am

herinfernallady

how is everyone going, i ahve hit 102 left

3:55 am

Haz1558

Good morning BabbleRabble. I assume you have finished the grid? How do you rate it?

3:56 am

BabbleRabble

I haven't finished. the grid is pretty straightforward thus far

3:56 am

herinfernallady

I got a quick 170 now a bit slower

3:56 am

grannyrose

hi babblerabble just in time for me to say adieu. MM is home and seems to think it's dinner time. yeah right.

3:57 am

herinfernallady

Laters RMC, the men of the huose are starting to eat the furniture and they can wait

3:57 am

BabbleRabble

have a good one, rmcc

3:57 am

Haz1558

It seems nice so far, I agree, Babble. No c. That has to be a nice change.

3:58 am

Haz1558

Bye rmcc have a good evening.

4:03 am

Flask1

If I never see another 'C' word again Haz, it'll be too soon!!

4:03 am

Haz1558

I know, that blessed tile just kept appearing!

4:04 am

Flask1

yes....and the was always an abundance of them!!!

4:05 am

Flask1

there*

4:13 am

Haz1558

A cow with milk fever can be in lateral recumbency (lying on her side) or st7/28 recumbency (lying on her front/chest.

4:15 am

Flask1

well....that clue went straight the top of my head Haz!!!!

4:15 am

Flask1

over the top!!

4:16 am

Haz1558

It's just adding Mr Gore to the back of the boat (the adjective for the proper term for chest)

4:17 am

Flask1

now that. I understand....thanks!

4:19 am

Haz1558

You're welcome.

4:23 am

Flask1

Ok Haz....thats definitely not Spangle in the piccie......????

4:24 am

Haz1558

No - I thought I had updated from yesterday but will have to do it again. It's Niles Crane - my favourite quote yesterday was him saying 'My brother was already eminent when my eminence was merely imminent'. I'll get Spangle back in prime position now.

4:26 am

Haz1558

And that should hopefully do it. Different profile today - we were looking for her best side.

4:26 am

Flask1

I should thinkso too!!!....lol

4:27 am

Haz1558

Did you ever watch Frasier, Flask?

4:27 am

Flask1

she's gorgeous!

4:28 am

Flask1

Yep!

4:29 am

Haz1558

I think it's my all-time favourite TV programme. My girls always said they knew it was Friday night because they could hear me roaring with laughter. (they were in bed!) They're old enough now to be able to appreciate it with me.

4:30 am

Flask1

lol......

4:31 am

Flask1

toons

4:31 am

Haz1558

I also caused them deep embarrassment when we went to see Toy Story in the cinema. Apparently I laughed far too loudly.

4:33 am

Flask1

Liked Toy Story too....me!

4:35 am

Haz1558

It was great, for children AND adults.

4:36 am

Haz1558

Anyway, just over halfway, so I'm going to take a break and come back to this shortly. I'll see you later.

5:53 am

MonkeyGames

Yup. I made it through to the toddler's nap time, now I will eat my cauliflower and then get on with th epacking... sigh.

5:54 am

pinkhatlil

yes we will and the idea of this grid doesn't help!

5:54 am

pinkhatlil

where are you going monkey

5:54 am

MonkeyGames

I already know I WON'T BE FINISHING THE GRID. kIND OF A RELIEF TO ALREADY KNOW THAT. mAKES IT EASIER TO GET UP AND DO SOMETHING ELSE.

5:54 am

Scrabbler

I have one Netherland dwarf, named Sebastian---he sleeps with me, or, rather, I sleep in HIS room and he sometimes wants to play when I want to sleep

5:55 am

pinkhatlil

i assume you mean your son maybe?????

5:55 am

Scrabbler

And I once had a Holland Lop named Benjamin Bunny. My sister has a Dutch Rabbit named Dutchess Marie, LOL

5:55 am

steph606

Im with you monkey, absolutely no chance!

5:55 am

MonkeyGames

wE ARE MOVING IN 8 DAYS. nOT FAR BUT IT IS STILL A MEGA-HASSLE.... Arrrrgh, look at my caps lock! Sorry. Anyway, we had to move three times in two years and thought we got to stay here buit no, the landlady is truly psycho. But we found a nice place after only three months of looking at crap!

5:56 am

herinfernallady

I gave up looking monkey and are moving in with the other half

5:57 am

MonkeyGames

Scrabbler, neat! I'm not such a rabbit freak per se but when Walter's old enough it is SO the traditional first pet here, even if we do already have a cat and a dog, of which the cat is the most popular odf all pets here, but when the kids want a pet they geta rabbit to start off with. I will be looking at English tans--very interesting breed. Or maybe those giant French ones.

5:58 am

loredana

Scrabbler another rabbit lady here I have mum dad and five kids all dwarfs and one full size.

5:58 am

steph606

Guinea pigs are also good first pets, less scratchy than rabbits!

5:58 am

pinkhatlil

moving is so stressful especially with young children, hopefully this will be last time you move for a good few years.

5:58 am

lynxxx

Whew - halfway. BBL

5:58 am

MonkeyGames

Herin, I understand. We even looked at a place in an industrial wasteland with no other dwellings, just factoruies, but iot was next to a transmitter tower and the evidence is not conclusive one way or the other about whether that would be safe for Walter and teh area stank. But eventually ythis place turned up and out of about 600 applicants they picked us!

5:58 am

MonkeyGames

Pink, we SURE hoipe so!

5:59 am

MonkeyGames

OK, off to make the cheese sauce for this vegetable. Back shortly.

5:59 am

herinfernallady

MG-one of my bunnies is an American Tan--10 lbs of love.

6:00 am

pinkhatlil

6:02 am

Scrabbler

I call myself Rabbitlady too, Loredana, and have had rabbits as pets since 1983.

6:02 am

pinkhatlil

my mum never allowed us to have rabbits as pets for some reason. I think she was worried about breeding withall the other rabbits on the estate

6:02 am

steph606

We have a cat a dog a guinea pig and tropical fish and also fish in a pond in the garden! Like a zoo

6:44 am

mrpresident

inge2 I believe I am doing the right thing! I hope!! they have to be somewhat tidy or the roaches and mites get away with blue murder!

6:47 am

6:48 am

carleekat

6:48 am

weegee

carleekat, laughing here, I'VE pulled things from the trash that I put there...

6:48 am

LynnNate08

hi ursh

6:48 am

Inge2

for what it's worth, neither of my kids (now 19 and 23) ever became "neat" by any stretch of the imagination, but they did learn that having stuff means responsibility for taking care of it.

6:48 am

herinfernallady

whats it callled

6:48 am

mrpresident

it was very good to read that 'emotional attachment' stuff is important to keep for sanity

6:49 am

Inge2

now on their own, they are better

6:49 am

weegee

Actually, hanging on to stuff is an Asperger's thing... organized or not, mostly not in my case

6:49 am

mrpresident

the book is called "How to Declutter Your House"

6:49 am

carleekat

we all have....but...this was..insane... old margerine cantainers ( oh..but they are great for touch up painting...etc )

6:49 am

steph606

6:49 am

chiley

weegee....I don't see horses

6:49 am

mrpresident

6:49 am

Inge2

6:49 am

carleekat

this is just... " I might need it one day"

6:50 am

steph606

6:50 am

carleekat

old pieces of carbon paper WHO uses carbon paper anymore?

6:50 am

Inge2

see, I'mm the opposite...I hate having stuff.

6:50 am

weegee

Inge2, I think Temple Grandin wrote about a kid like that. My brother collected cigarette packages...

6:50 am

mrpresident

LOL! steph! that is my daughter all over!

6:50 am

weegee

Hey, I have LOTS of carbon paper!!!!

6:50 am

6:53 am

Inge2

throw it away, infernal. It will be hard to do, but you will feel liberated.

6:53 am

weegee

A friend told me it's selfish to hold onto stuff I don't use when someone else could... thinking of that helps me somewhat... carload for Goodwill today, in fact

6:53 am

mrpresident

carl! totally agree!! LOL

6:53 am

steph606

oh herin it would be very good for you to declutter it, you would feel liberated and probably slep better

Just popping in while still packing to say if you haven't tried Pandora.com, DO! It asks you for a song or artist, or a few, then builds you a "station" from there while you give songs a thumbs up or thumbs down, and it evolves. Back to work, have fun all!

Yes and no, Annie! The water company fended the responsibility off on the problem being one of being repaired by a plumber... it's the water-feed valve into the utility

8:42 am

shdybr8

i listen to yahoo music when i'm **working**, and it doesn't repeat as much..costs a few dollars a month

8:43 am

movieman

i usually listen to my extensive music collection stored on itunes......

8:43 am

shdybr8

but pandora is good for finding songs you've never heard (until it repeats them 5 times that day)

8:43 am

Scarlet

Now, we are waiting for a plumber, and the seventy dollar monthly bill, which careened into four hundred dollars will have to be adjusted by the home's owner, who has her medical practice next door! Oy, the headaches!

pandora played one of their other songs and I couldnt get the one I liked to come up!

Make a cider vinegar-based marinade with garlic, oregano, black pepper, a touch of cayenne, olive oil, and whatever spice you like. Put chicken and marinade in a Zip-lok bag and let it sit for a few hours. Grill or bake!

I love to cook and bake, too, carleekat. Filo sheets are a wonderland!

MonkeyGames

Hmmm, Sprite. I'll try that. Meanwhile we just got back from the park and met our swishiest neighbor. Quite flambuouyant. Nice guy. Has a Weimeraner.

10:50 am

Welcome to my world, shdy!

10:50 am

10:51 am

ARB

Any clue on the first mo 5/14?

10:51 am

Fiber Art

Hi, Scarlet--did you clear up the fish pond??

10:51 am

MonkeyGames

The first mo5/14 sounds like part of the male anatomy but the first letter is (obviously) different.

10:51 am

shdybr8

ra7 is plural, apparently a boat with 3 oarsmen?

10:52 am

sprite, i am sorry my boss called me....i did see a clue about par tof a lady + male but i didd not get it...try again?

10:52 am

Scarlet

No, Fiber. The water utility said it was not their problem... that a personal plumber would have to make an adjustment on the pipe-to-house feeder mechanism... awaiting the plumber! Our bill went from $70 to $400 plus... and they would not respond to e-mails nor phone messages! OY!

10:53 am

MonkeyGames

Hmmm. Thanks, working on that...

10:53 am

mkl

Temple Owl: a hero saves a ***sel in distress, + male child. That is for the da6 :)

Oh dear--we have a friend whose city sewer line backed up into their basement. City wouldn't do anything--said she should have had some sort of check valve. They had to throw away everything, even the walls.

10:54 am

Scarlet

The homeowner has her medical practice next door to our home, across the driveway... and she will take full responsibility for the costs! Thanks be to our guiding angels!

10:54 am

mkl

CRAP. I miss that every grid. Thanks.

10:54 am

72 Temple Owl

10:55 am

don't forget the plural then, mkl ;)

10:55 am

Scarlet

Yes~!

10:55 am

mkl

Think I'll write it on a piece of paper. Any time there's an O in the grid, I'll type it in first.

10:55 am

Scarlet

Hi, mkl!

10:55 am

shdybr8

lol, mkl

10:55 am

72 Temple Owl

i found ny blind word today! : ) the light gas!

10:56 am

sprite

I have a couple of those words as well, mkl. No matter how often they occur, I keep being blind to them.

10:56 am

Scarlet

If you are anything like my beloved, mkl... you'll lose the piece of paper!

10:56 am

shdybr8

***blinder than TO*** thx!

10:56 am

mkl

:-). Most likely.

10:56 am

mkl

Two words to go till fireworks. Both of them are double o's.

10:56 am

shdybr8

sticky notes, mkl....helps a little, anyway!

10:57 am

72 Temple Owl

Fiber Art

10:57 am

shdybr8

sounds like the drink, rolin

10:58 am

mkl

Every time there is a double O I look for oosic. Never have seen it though.

10:58 am

Scarlet

OO+ horse controls, minus last consonant, and mix up the vowels

10:58 am

sprite

one oo is a plural exclamation, one is same word but with other consonant before the plural letter, one is the babblet with only one consonant in the middle

10:58 am

shdybr8

now THAT is a crazy word, scarlet!!!!, or as LoriP would say..stooopid

10:58 am

rolin

i thought that was a flavour of icecream?

10:59 am

Scarlet

LOL, shdy... but it's Babble!!

11:00 am

Fiber Art

I missed fireworks by one word yesterday--it wouldn't take "where", so I was one short.

11:00 am

Scarlet

LOL, shdy and evan!

11:00 am

mkl

When I find food I didn't remember I had, it's usually in the back of the fridge and either green or orange. Yuck

11:01 am

Scarlet

Fiber... why was that word a problem?

11:01 am

EvaNadine

bought some veggies from our little cantina...they come with a little ranch dip, but never enough...i bought it and said to myself "self, i really wish i had some ranch dip here at work!"

and lo + behold, i had a totally new bottle in the fridge!

11:01 am

sprite

usually food like that makes itself known here by knocking on the inside of the fridge door to be let out

11:01 am

Scarlet

LOL, sprite!

Oddly, this page said "you've already entered "where", but it wouldn't show up in My Word List. It happend when there was a system glitch.

12:01 pm

Haz1558

I'm afraid not, Atalante - his condition deteriorated and he had to be put to sleep. A five year old golden cocker spaniel..... so sad.

12:01 pm

Atalante

oh NO!

12:01 pm

hetty

Maybe you should drink some to celebrate, Haz and thereby give me an excusefor my loose lips!

12:02 pm

Atalante

oh poor baby

12:02 pm

rolin

oh haz...im so sorry...

12:02 pm

Haz1558

ea7 and ea8 refer to being within hearing distance of something.

12:02 pm

shdybr8

ohhhh, haz......

12:02 pm

Atalante

golden cockers are so problematic. they are *so* inbred

12:03 pm

mymuseisme

ea7,8 are compound words, meaning to be in the vicinity of hearnig

12:03 pm

Haz1558

I know, Atalante, the poor owners were really disappointed. They have another dog which apparently had been pining for its companion. Poor people.

12:03 pm

magzel

thanks my muse

12:03 pm

Atalante

*sigh* I bet :( I love golden cockers, but I'd never have another one. I've never yet come across a "normal" golden

12:04 pm

hetty

*big shoulders

12:05 pm

Haz1558

It is difficult - you just have to be as sympathetic as possible. I've had people sobbing down the phone to me about their pets. We get so attached!

12:07 pm

stidmama

12:07 pm

12:08 pm

stidmama

12:09 pm

Atalante

yup, I have a very close friend who lives in Astoria. Once a year I go over to see her and once a year she comes over to see me :)

12:09 pm

stidmama

we usually recommend "layers" around here... *grin* it's warm (60F/15C) during the days, dips down to mid 40s (about 10 C) at night.

12:10 pm

hetty

Ata, come June we're embarking on a tour of Washington, Oregon and California. Wheee

12:10 pm

Atalante

oh fun hetty!

12:10 pm

te8 is a plural compound word

12:11 pm

stidmama

12:11 pm

Atalante

12:11 pm

mymuseisme

EvaNadine

so, i think ive officially decided today that my mother must be on drugs...

12:12 pm

rolin

im yet to make my way to the u.s.. but it will happen

12:12 pm

Atalante

its been really warm here this last week. really muggy and hot

12:12 pm

rolin

lol evan..whats prompted that?

12:12 pm

stidmama

what was the clincher for this diagnosis evanadine?

12:12 pm

Haz1558

Lots of people had to be treated for heat exhaustion, sadly one 22 year old died (after rather than during the race)

12:12 pm

Atalante

why evan??

12:12 pm

stidmama

that is sad, Haz. what a shame!

12:12 pm

rolin

i didnt hear that haz!...wow...22?... how could that have happened?

12:12 pm

EvaNadine

a few years ago, when my parents were getting ready to move into the house theyre in now, mom had to downsize a lot of their stuff, so she GAVE me this gorgeous Burberry overnight bag that a client had given her, because it wasnt part of a set, and she decided that she had no room for a bag that wasnt part of a set....

12:13 pm

EvaNadine

then, on saturday, she GAVE me a Burberry purse that i suppose someone gave to her.

12:13 pm

Atalante

and he was a fitness instructor ...

12:13 pm

stidmama

wow!

12:13 pm

rolin

even more bizarre ata

12:14 pm

stidmama

he must have had something wrong that was unknown... healthy 22year olds don't just die, even after hot marathon running

12:14 pm

Atalante

I guess it was dehydration related

12:14 pm

Haz1558

I haven't heard any results of a post-mortem, but what a terrible thing to happen, isn't it?

12:15 pm

Atalante

*checks bbc news to see what they say*

12:15 pm

stidmama

so why, evanadine, does this mean your mother's on drugs?

12:15 pm

movieman

the 3rd mo7/32 plz

12:15 pm

EvaNadine

somehow, i think i will ALWAYS have room for Burberry!

12:15 pm

stidmama

hye movieman!

12:16 pm

hiya stid!!!!!!!

Ok, I need a clue for my last 8, the os....

12:16 pm

you would of thought smoosh wasa a word lol

12:16 pm

Haz1558

mo7/32 - mo plus the name of the late Princess of Wales' stepmother.

12:16 pm

stidmama

*drops in a faint from shock* well, gee... that's a bit of money!

12:16 pm

Haz1558

The os8 relates to tumours occuring on the bone.

12:17 pm

EvaNadine

exactly, stid. and being english, i KNOW my mom understands the joy of burberry!

12:17 pm

Atalante

the Daily Telegraph reported it was due to hyponatraemia following kidney failure caused by a sodium deficiency

12:18 pm

stidmama

oh -- too MUCH water then... that stinks.

12:18 pm

EvaNadine

i think the purse is about $300 or so...

12:18 pm

rolin

ok..so whats the difference b/w sodium and solt?

12:18 pm

KnightTime

greeting all

12:19 pm

Atalante

salt is sodium chloride

12:19 pm

shdybr8

chloride?

12:19 pm

pabtrek

so she's keeping the "really" good stuff for herself, evanadine :)

12:19 pm

Haz1558

Hello knight.

12:19 pm

stidmama

no difference really the sodium is the Na part of salt which is NaCl...

12:19 pm

shdybr8

hi knight

12:19 pm

KnightTime

any clues on the pi6.21 that is not the fish or the grapes or the musical instrument

12:19 pm

rolin

so why on the labels do they separate the salt and sodium levels?

12:20 pm

EvaNadine

hah, maybe pab!
ive already laid claim to her wedgewood collection ;)

12:20 pm

stidmama

when a person doesn't have enough salt (or potassium and some other things) the cells can't "breathe" and process things. too much sodium in the blood or too little and parts start shutting down

12:20 pm

mymuseisme

pi6 horses

12:20 pm

rolin

i thought the pi fish had an 'h' in it?

12:20 pm

BGL

Knight - pl bean (or could be a horse)

12:20 pm

shdybr8

lots of things are "salt"

12:20 pm

Haz1558

Two of the pi6/21 are very similar, just switching round last letters.

12:20 pm

KnightTime

ty rolin and bgl

12:21 pm

stidmama

well salt is the raw ingredient and sodium is the important part. Just like they like the type of oil (olive oil or canola oil) and then how much actual fat is in a serving.

12:21 pm

rolin

wel im confused..ya try to be healthy...*reaching for some choclate*

12:21 pm

uusue

You can get sodium from sources other than salt, such as baking soda

12:22 pm

uusue

so the amount of salt doesn't necessarily account for all the sodium

12:22 pm

shdybr8

and "salt" refers to any compound made up of acids and bases

12:22 pm

rolin

and indeed i was shocked to read on the side of the packet..that my breakfast cereal has a whole gram of salt in an avergae serve

12:22 pm

shdybr8

i.e. Potassium chloride is also a salt

12:22 pm

uusue

shoe

12:23 pm

uusue

Drat. Sorry.

12:23 pm

I was always amused to read about the sugars added to spaghetti sauce. corn syrup has no place in a good marinara!

12:23 pm

Gkmandy

i'm running out of words :(

12:24 pm

shdybr8

true, stid, that's why the stuff in the jars wasn't really mde for human consumption (unless the human is very tired and it's late)

12:24 pm

rolin

im getting to the point where im giving up all premade sauces and going back to cooking my own..like i used to..

12:25 pm

shdybr8

better and actually cheaper, rolin!

12:25 pm
